But the legislation also defunded many aspects of President Obama&#8217;s recent actions on immigration. The Senate failed to pass the bill over Democratic opposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A DHS shutdown would hit the Federal Emergency Management Agency particularly hard, where about 86 percent of its workforce would be furloughed \u2013 about 4,000 employees, according to administrator Craig Fugate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the shutdown FEMA had to recall 240 agency employees to prepare for lifesaving operations as Tropical Storm Karen formed in the Gulf of Mexico and threatened the coastline, Fugate <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/blog\/2015\/02\/06\/getting-budget-process-back-track\" title=\"http:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/blog\/2015\/02\/06\/getting-budget-process-back-track\">said in a Feb. 6 blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Even then, we couldn&#8217;t support them administratively or prepare for any potential recovery efforts \u2013 a major detriment to our mission to support survivors,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fugate called on Congress to pass a full-year funding bill, saying that the continued uncertainty harms operations across the agency and compromises FEMA&#8217;s mission to keep communities safe and secure during emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Lurching along with temporary funding, or no funding, prevents us from doing our part to keep the American people safe. The best way to operate the federal government is through the normal process, in which Congress appropriates the funds, the President signs a bill, and we have a real budget to operate under for the fiscal year,&#8221; Fugate said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department of Homeland Security would have to furlough about 30,000 employees if Congress does not pass a
